As a contrast to Trump, I saw this quote today, attributed to the recently deceased President Carter:
A strong nation, like a strong person, can afford to be gentle, firm, thoughtful and restrained. It can afford to extend a helping hand to others. It is a weak nation, like a weak person, that must behave with bluster, and boasting and rashness and other signs of insecurity.
It's almost as if he knew. Maybe he did
" that must behave with bluster, and boasting and rashness" it fits so well especially in the age of "X".
When everything uttered has to be "fact checked".
